Label TextThis portrait bears a French canvas stamp on its reverse. It was possibly executed while Isham was a student in Paris. It might have remained in his studio until his death, at which point it could have come to the Academy with the drawings presented by his sister.For several years, 653-P bore the tentative and incorrect title of Portrait or J. Stearns.
